Visitors can sunbathe on Margaret River's pristine sandy beaches, kayak or stand-up paddleboard on the mighty Margaret River and taste award-winning wines at local wineries, some of which are located only 10 kilometres from the coast. One of the best ways to enjoy Margaret River’s wine offering is on an organised tour. When visiting Margaret River, a detour to Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse in Augusta is a must. It is the most south westerly tip of the Australian continent, where the Indian Ocean and Southern Ocean meet. Between May and August, you can watch whales migrating to the warmer waters of the north. Back on Caves Road, take in the impressive Boranup Forest, home to 70-metre high Karri trees. Along the way, you can visit Lake Cave, Mammoth Cave or Jewel Cave and stop at Hamelin Bay, where, with a bit of luck, you might spot huge stingrays on the beach’s shoreline. Stay overnight in Margaret River.
